Title: change of atmosphere on blonde
Post by: turny on September 21, 2006, 12:35:11 AM
what is it with people on here at the moment?

this forum used to be a good place for discussion on a varied number of topics.always friendly and constructive.

but imo its changing.

now its getting to the point that if you dont agree or contradict  the original poster they abuse your post and views.

its getting to the stage now when i feel i cant be bothered to contribute to a discussion for fear of being ridiculed or my posts abused by other posters.

one of my posts tonight was dismissed as piss poor and lacking substance just because i disagreed with another posters comments.

also this week my son rookie has been abused by a long time member via pm calling him among other things a c*nt.
completley unneccessary imo!

come on blondes lets keep this place a nice place to visit and a place we can have a discussion on any subject without having fear that what we write might be abused by others.

I think the reason i got pissed off it becasue i bothered to outline why I didnt think you was correct on a certain issue and you decided to not bother responding but make a cheap joke. Kinda made me think why bother to actually type something other than a cheap joke. It works both ways.

If I upset you then I am sorry, but respecting people works both ways.

Instead of the next blonde gathering being call blonde bash 4 can we call it: blonde bash 'em up!

we all turn up and hit the people we dont like round the head with various types of fish; haddock, cod, whatever you like really, lets keep it civilised though people, no sharks or anything over 3 feet!!!

Given blondes rapid rate of growth, I think it's incredible that the atmosphere has not changed greatly. It is inevitable that a few more spats will develop, but the tone of this thread shows that the 'blonde ethos' is very much alive.

I think the mods and members do a great job of keeping the general atmosphere friendly and constructive.  ;hattip;

Without the good nature and common sense of the members, we would have an impossible job, even if we had 50 moderators.

Oh good so we can talk about JAMMMMM TARTTTTTSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Seriously though ITM there has always been a few killjoys around and as the forum gets bigger there is bound to be more.

The blonde spirit im sure will put them in their place.

Abusing someone by PM though is bang out of order and I hope when that person sobers up they will apologize.

Acidmouse seems to me to be a good guy and im sure his intentions were not malicious.

BTW have you seen him rip into the canadians in the $1k freeroll.........its hilarious!!!

I think the atmosphere is "Great" tbh.

Look how this topic started then look at the next 5/6 pots :D

Alot of people are snobs on forums  ;goodvevil;

But sometimes we can take things the wrong way ;)

I dont post on here much coz i dont know alot of you but i read read read.

What would the world be like if we all had the same opinions? or onions? or if no1 got drunk like me :D ?

Lets have a song.

Blonde is "Great"
And so are you :D

It does seem to be threads about football which cause all the trouble - sometimes there's more closed minds and abusive name-calling than you get on the Inter-Faith Discussion forum over at the Vatican's website...

No - unless you admit it on the Inter-Faith Discussion forum on the Vatican's website............

but if you do i would go into hiding as i believe the Bishop of Salzburg does bear a grudge big time!!

Hmmm. Living and working in Salzburg, I know that this fine city has an ARCH-Bishop rather than a bishop.

I am not certain of his propensity for self-abuse, but not being of the catholic faith, in my opinion, you can call him whatever you like.

God Bless,
Mike :)

Actually, interesting subject you have brought up. When we refer to "Americans", we are talking about citizens of the USA. But actually, Americans come from all over America, from Brazil up to Canada! All of them American. The citizens of the United States should be called Usanians.

I would never in a million years classed myself as American, North American yes, American never! Then again I don't really class myself as someone from one certain place, I'm International!  :D
